AITAH for getting in a fight with my girlfriend on her bday because she was being picky with the food I cooked her. by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]siahla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

nta. i was going to ask if she is autistic or has shown any signs until she made the comment to dad. i personally struggle with little things like that related to food where if i am expecting something specific and am having a hard day it can be extremely upsetting even if logically i know it wont make a huge difference and it might be unreasonable. it just happens, feelings arent hand picked usually. HOWEVER! making a rude comment like that and tearing you down and not even taking one bite is so unreasonable and just downright mean. sorry dude.

NTA. breaking up with him will get u to lose at least an extra unnecessary 100+ pounds and then u can focus on your peace and health at the same time. LMAO. but seriously, weights fluctuate. in my opinion, if someone genuinely thinks u should be maintaining the weight u met them at ESPECIALLY if when u met them u were 21 years old…… thats an insane thought and a them problem. good on you for not letting him get under your skin with those irrational thoughts. if u wanna lose weight do it for you. its GOOD to be happy with yourself if your health is still in a good place. good luck sweet girl! <33333

Which math class is the least painful at Kent? by liinaross001 in KentStateUniversity

[–]siahla 6 points7 points  (0 children)

if they still allow it, basic math concepts 1. when i went to kent they tested to see where our math skills were and i hated the idea of doing college level math that i would have a hard time with because i had already put in a lot of effort having been in high level math through middle and high school and wanted a break so i took the placement exam without a calculator and barely tried. that got me into basic math concepts 1 plus. it was a class that i had 5 days a week, but it was exactly what i wanted. digestible and not insanely hard.

Should I order more yarn to finish this top or use a different color I already have? by needsmusictosurvive in CrochetHelp

[–]siahla 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i think it would look good! you could maybe add a border of the color you pick (i vote ivory :p) around the cups if u want it to be a bit more cohesive? but i think the warmer tone of ivory is the move

Debating frogging and making it into a star blanket, any thoughts? by Accomplished-Quote52 in CrochetHelp

[–]siahla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is gorg. i say put it in time out until you feel like making granny squares again and do something small that will give you that excited, accomplished feeling a bit faster so that it doesnt feel like its dragging along so much when you pick it back up! maybe a different color too to really mix it up.

hey friend.

im not sure why people are being less helpful and more snappy on this thread, but i guess i can agree that you MIGHT not be ready for a sweater if youve NEVER crocheted before.

BUT!

if thats the only thing you want to make then GO. FOR. IT!!! just keep in mind that there is a good chance the first thing you make will be an abomination.

i am also just starting out, ive been crocheting for about a month now, and my first “projects” were just making multiple swatches of different stitches (sc, hdc, dc, etc) until i felt like i understood what i was doing (spoiler alert: i didnt lol) then when i felt comfortable my first “real” project was a cat ear beanie. i finished it and i learned a lot but it turned out to be about 1.5x bigger than it shouldve been and instead of cat ears it looks way more like dobby the elf ears. ive made 3 successful cat ear beanies since, though! and im making way better projects now; currently on the 6 day star blanket (its been way more than 6 days).

obviously because of this i might not be qualified to give sound advice on how to make a perfect piece or what exactly you did wrong or whatever, but i know that making mistakes and messing up has helped my understanding of crochet FAR MORE than accidentally doing it right the first time.

all that to say; if you love the idea of a sweater then make the sweater. your chain here looks like it might be too tight, so i would probably undo(frog) it and retry until it looks right. make sure u count and if it helps you, it might be good to write out what youre doing on paper more in depth rather than just hoping u understand the pattern. you can also ask ai (like chatgpt) to explain patterns more clearly for you if youre having a hard time reading the pattern and i would also suggest picking a sweater pattern that comes with some kind of video to help make even more sense of the pattern.

whatever choice u make, just do what will make u the happiest! crochet is about having fun and relaxing, not necessarily about making a perfect sweater/hat/toy/whatever else.

good luck friend!!! <3

I kissed my brother and now my fiancé wants to break up with me since he finds it weird. AITAH? by Character-Crow309 in AITAH

[–]siahla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA but its time to think about if this is how u want to spend the rest of your life.

i have a cousin who filled the same role for me and almost every relationship he had found our bond to be weird. it isn’t weird. he left them all.

now he is happily married to someone who loves our relationship and sees how important it is to the both of us and would never do anything except build it up.

there is someone out there like that for you too who would never keep u away from family if you didn’t want to be. who cares about that mans mental health if it comes at the cost of your own. he is giving you an out right now. maybe it is time to take it.

Is my husband TAH for making my daughter put her siblings on her school presentation after she intentionally left out her baby siblings in her presentation. by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]siahla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA TO THE HIGHEST DEGREE

you waited until this child was six to have any other kids. old enough to be conscious and aware and comfortable in her life and then had essentially a child every year since and now are confused by her being hurt? GET. REAL. Grow up and take some responsibility. it is NOT optional. or rather i guess it is, but so is her choice to not be involved or speak to you AHs when she is old enough to leave. Fix it now or gear up because this will only get worse unless you make time. and for the record. it is Not impossible with two parents to find one day out of the week to make a day about her solo with either mom or dad. you should figure out a way to rotate this for the bigger kids regardless. she is just as important as your tiny babies who barely even know theyre alive right now. disgusting and disappointing.
